    The History of Sopas Recipe in the Philippines

    Filipino Macaroni Soup is popularly known as “sopas’ in the Philippines. This delicious soup recipe was derived from the American recipe which is called chicken noodle soup. Sopas is actually very easy to make. It is done by sauteing spices then adding all the other ingredients and letting it boil until the pasta is cooked al dente. The most common ingredients used by Filipinos in making sopas are spices like onions and garlic, carrots, cubed potatoes, kinchay, elbow macaroni and last but the most important one is the shredded meat. Both chicken and pork meat are commonly used in the Philippines when making sopas.
